<br/><br/>That men by various ways arrive at the same end -- Of sorrow -- That our affections carry themselves beyond us -- That the soul discharges her passions upon false objects, where the true are wanting -- Whether the governor of a place besieged ought himself to go out to parley -- That the hour of parley is dangerous -- That the intention is judge of our actions -- Of idleness -- Of liars -- Of quick or slow speech -- Of prognostications -- Of constancy.

<br/><br/> "Essays of Michel de Montaigne — Volume 02" by Michel de Montaigne is a collection of essays written between approximately 1570 and 1592. This volume continues Montaigne's pioneering exploration of human nature through candid self-examination. Writing during France's religious wars, he probes topics from the profound to the mundane, questioning human certainty and reason. His conversational style weaves classical quotations with personal reflection, creating essays that grow longer and more complex as his thought evolves, offering timeless insights into our fragile, contradictory humanity.
